As you ask the question in the subject, this machine is a NewWorld
machine, and not a CHRP one. I think we don't really want to provide a
CHRP emulated machine, so the best is probably to rename ppc_chrp.c into
ppc_newworld.c.

Great work.
I gave a quick look at the patches, they looks fine. However I still
experience some problem with the PowerMac IDE emulation, especially with
recent kernels, so until it is fixed (Laurent is working on that) I
think we should keep the CMD646 as a default.
